Chapter 1290: Simulation Training
Inside Hangar One.
The number of people who were originally punished by running laps has gradually decreased.
In the end, only one person remained running.
That naturally meant punishing Cao's soldiers the most severely.
Finally, the vice-captain of the first squad couldn't help but run to Zhao Chen's office.
He pleaded, "Captain, Captain Cao was rude to you earlier."
But... he has already run two hundred kilometers!
If they keep running like this, they'll die.
Zhao Chen said calmly, "With today's technology, you won't die from running."
"But..." the vice-captain still wanted to plead.
Zhao Chen coldly raised his head and looked at the other person: "No matter who it is, they need to be responsible for the choices they make."
Even Captain Cao Bing.
The vice-captain gritted his teeth and turned around unwillingly.
At this moment, Zhao Chen spoke up: "You can notify the infirmary to send someone over to keep an eye on things."
If Cao's soldiers faint, they should be sent for treatment immediately.
But those who didn't finish will continue next time.
Hearing the captain's words, the deputy captain breathed a sigh of relief and immediately went to make arrangements.
Finally, after running nearly 300 kilometers, Captain Cao collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.
This could be extremely deadly.
Fortunately, the medical staff nearby immediately came to treat him.
Then, using a mechanical stretcher, Cao Bing was transported to the treatment ward.
There, Cao's soldiers could recover in a maximum of half an hour.
From then on, in just a few hours...
All the starfighter pilots and ground crew on the Black Rose I had nothing but awe for this newly appointed ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) squadron leader.
Soon, the various teams began to learn and familiarize themselves with the new training method.
The training mainly focused on several formations.
It's not difficult. These are all elite fighter pilots, and they only need a few hours of training to master it.
It's just unclear why the captain would require them to master this in such a short time.
"Announcement to the entire ship."
Ten minutes later, we will prepare to depart.
At this moment, the broadcast sounded throughout all departments of the ship.
To others, this was just an ordinary departure from port.
No one paid any attention; they were simply focused on handling their own tasks.
But Zhao Chen knew.
This departure marks the beginning of the operation.
Zhao Chen walked slowly to his department, to the only spot with a porthole, from which he could see the outside.
He could see interstellar warships outside.
This is Song Chen's personal guard fleet, consisting of a total of three hundred interstellar warships.
This included five near-T6 Black Rose-class heavy starship battlecruisers, and the rest were all T5 starships.
Judging from the sheer scale of the operation, it's quite terrifying.
Even three thousand conventional interstellar warships would find it difficult to overcome this tough challenge.
However, the enemy knew the size of Song Chen's personal guard fleet, so they dared to attack him because they were well-prepared.
It's just unknown where the enemy will choose to attack.
Zhao Chen opened the star map.
He knew the route of this voyage through the spy device he had previously placed on Song Qingshan.
He pulled up the entire interstellar map along this route.
He quickly marked several suitable ambush locations on it.
There are three in total.
Zhao Chen rubbed his chin, pondering which of the three ambush locations was the most suitable.
From near to far, the locations can be divided into ambush sites number one, two, and three.
In terms of advantages, ambush location number one is undoubtedly the best, but it's too close to here.
The third ambush location was the furthest away and also the worst.
The most likely location is actually the most evenly distributed ambush site, number two.
Zhao Chen silently memorized these locations.
Then he gave an order to his flight squadron.
"Thirty minutes later, we will conduct a live-fire simulation training exercise."
This order was only issued to the captains and vice-captains of each squad.

First Flight Squadron
Cao Bing, who had just recovered from fainting, pulled off the blanket covering him.
His expression was very serious.
Although his physical condition had recovered, when his legs landed on the ground, he still felt as if his legs were uncomfortable.
"Captain, the doctor said you need to rest a bit more!" The vice-captain hurriedly stopped Captain Cao Bing when he saw him trying to get out of bed.
Captain Cao Bing stubbornly replied, "I still owe him 150 kilometers."
I have to finish the race!
As he spoke, Captain Cao Bing prepared to get up and go for a run.
But the vice-captain stopped him and said, "Captain Cao Bing said that since you didn't finish, you naturally need to make up for it."
However, the starship has now left port and is now on Level 3 combat readiness.
He didn't want... a squad leader who, if war broke out at this time, wouldn't even have the strength to fly a fighter jet.
Therefore, your punishment will be postponed until your next port call for rest.
Upon hearing the deputy captain's words, Captain Cao Bing paused.
He clenched his fists, but in the end, he obediently sat down on the edge of the bed.
It seems he accepted this arrangement.
Just then, Zhao Chen's first order was issued.
It's about live-fire training.
Why does he have so many arrangements?
"It's only been a few hours, and there's already another live-fire training exercise." The vice-captain said with some dissatisfaction.
But Captain Cao spoke up for Zhao Chen, saying, "This is what he should do."
As a newly appointed flight squadron leader, who was parachuted in from elsewhere.
He needed to quickly familiarize himself with his team and understand their combat readiness.
"Captain, why are you still speaking up for him?"
"If he hadn't come, this position of battalion commander should have been yours." The vice-captain spoke up for the captain.
However, Captain Cao said calmly, "The position of battalion commander should be filled by the most capable person."
He is stronger than all of us, so naturally he has the ability to sit in this position.
As subordinates, we should carry out his orders.
Okay, enough with the nonsense.
Get ready for a 30-minute live simulation.
I don't want to embarrass myself in front of our captain again.
"Once is enough for something shameful," Captain Cao said calmly.
"yes."
Half an hour passed quickly.
The entire flight squadron sounded the battle alarm.
This is limited to departments such as flight squadrons and starfighters.
Other departments are unaware of what happened here.
To ensure combat effectiveness, the supreme commander has the authority to conduct live-fire simulations within this combat unit.
At that moment, all the pilots and ground crew of the flight squadron sprang into action.
The first step is to arrange all the starfighters into a sortie order, and at the same time, have the first-order starfighters take off and land in the combat hangar, ready for sortie.
Meanwhile, the interstellar drones next door were also ready for battle.
The starfighter pilots, dressed in their best, awaited orders in their respective lounges.
